The Logistics Cluster is responsible for coordination, Information Management, and for facilitating access to common logistics services to ensure an effective and efficient logistics response takes place in humanitarian emergency missions. The Logistics Cluster enables global, regional and local actors to meet humanitarian needs. Before crises, we work with the stakeholders in high risk countries and regions to strengthen local capacities. In crises, where local capacities have been exceeded, we provide leadership, coordination, information and operational services. Globally, the Logistics Cluster is a community of partners actively working to overcome logistics constraints, develop and share best practices and solutions. The cluster approach was adopted in 2005 as a result of the Humanitarian Reform process launched by the United Nations Emergency Relief Coordinator, through the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC). The Reform process focused on strengthening coordination and accountability, enhancing partnerships in key sectors, including logistics. Because of its expertise in humanitarian logistics and its field capacity, the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) was chosen by the IASC to be the lead agency of the Logistics Cluster. In this role, when necessary, WFP acts as a provider of last resort offering common logistics services, to all humanitarian responders.
